Wellcome Collection Cafe in Camden

Came here and was very happy with the general cleanliness of the place. Food was nice. Cakes quite expensive.Light installation is great!

The cafe itself was super minimalist, but the little museum shop was full of all sorts of art and books :D I had a super yummy hot chocolate under these beautiful lights

A bit shocked the chicken & mushroom pie costs £8.95. Tasted fine but it’s well overpriced.

Wellcome Café’s ‘Perfect Matcha’—more like ‘Perfect Disaster!’ For £4.60, we were served a murky, swamp-colored concoction that looked nothing like the beautiful bright green matcha in the ad. My friends and I bravely took a sip, only to be hit with a taste that can only be described as ‘vomit meets poo.’ None of us could make it past the first sip. It was a bonding experience, but only in the sense that we all bonded over how truly horrific it was. If I could give it zero stars, I would. On top of this, their desserts left out in the open with swarms of fruit flies are also truly disgusting. Please, save your taste buds!

Visited the Welcome Collection on a rainy Monday 30/09/2024 wishing to see an exhibition or two only to discover they're always closed on Mondays! The staff on duty were really lovely and so helpful 🌟 Instead we went to the cafe for hot drinks and to the shop. The shop's great and always worth a visit but the cafè invariably has really slow baristas and many people were hanging around waiting for their orders.

I had the carrot cake, which was very tasty. If I can pick on something, it would be that the frosting was very sugary. From what I could see, they only had two vegan cakes and one falafel wrap as vegan offerings. Great museum concept, but the café is nothing special. This might be because I'm a tourist, but £4,95 for an average sized slize of cake sounds excessive to me. Staff didn't care much.

Lovely space, let down by stale chocolate muffins & cinnamon buns, and declining to serve coffee an hour before the cafe closes. Rubbish! Edited to add: the flocks of fruit flies wafting around the place is also a bit off-putting 😬

Excellent friendly space . Welcoming staff , very spacious - you definitely will not feel enclosed here , ideal for a little creative thinking

It’s a nice museum cafe upon entering with spacious ceilings and pretty nice decor, however, the food is abysmal. I paid £4 for a blueberry muffin and I took a bite in, I almost choked on it because of how stodgy it was. It was definitely over cooked, so much so that the inside was off coloured and too crumbly. The 4 pack tesco muffins for £1.50 are at least double as nice. I thought the food would be decent seeing as they outsource to benugo but it really was terrible.

Seemed to be reasonably priced for London. Nice fresh salads.

Staggeringly over-priced mediocre, bland, rubbish food

Its a nice place to take your family or eat by yourself for a couple of hours. Unfortunately the ambience/environment is pretty noisy and tables are close to eachother. Not ideal for studying/working because of this. Pretty lighting on cafe cieling. Food was alright, I ordered a cinnamon bun which was pretty much all sugar, and overpriced (£4.80), cappuccino was nice, not as hot as I would have liked it and missing the chocolate powder. Staff were friendly ans service was good, pretty fast. The toilets are very modern and pretty clean.

Appalling service, expensive food. Waited 10 minutes for someone to come and serve food, a sandwich. They were only interested in selling coffee and cake

The decor/atmosphere in the Wellcome Collection cafe area is nice. However, the food and service was a bit all over the place. I feel bad for leaving a bad review as I know the staff behind the till could be nice people, but I think it would help if they had some re-training as it was somewhat disorganised/slow. E.g. didn’t know what the soup of the day was, confusion over when I should pay so I had to go back to the till multiple times, probably took about 40 minutes for me to get some soup and bread even though the cafe was almost empty, and there was a lot of miscommunication between staff members (lady taking orders at the till and guy pouring soup/picking up slices of bread) leading to slow service (lots of confusion over how many soups had been ordered, or who to serve food to - I saw them serve my bread to another customer and then laugh about it later when they realised they’d got it wrong, then it took them another 10 minutes to pick up another slice of bread for me). I know everyone makes mistakes, but it seemed like they were confused during every step of the process. Luckily my friend and I weren’t in a rush or particularly hungry so we just laughed about it. As for the food - soup was like something you could buy in a pot from the supermarket (which is fine, just not worth the £6.50 I paid), and the bread was a bit of a joke (a single tiny slice of bread which looked like the cheapest bread you could get from a supermarket). This would have cost max. £2 from the supermarket. I’m hoping the profit goes towards something useful for the Wellcome Collection 😂😁

กาแฟโอเค ราคาดี ที่นั่งเยอะ เบื่อๆก็ขึ้นไปดู exhibition อยู่ใกล้สถานี Euston แวะมานั่งรอรถไฟได้ นำแก้วมาเองลด 10%ด้วยครับ

Beautiful place to sit down and have a drink with friends. The food looks healthy and nice but I didn't try. I ordered a latte with my own cup so got 10% discount, nice! Great relaxing atmosphere with lots of people sitting alone with own laptops.

Very nice place with good coffee and plenty of type of pastries, very kind service and an incredible selection of books and games in the shop. We didn't have the time to see the exhibitions but we'll definitely come back.

Great atmosphere. The vibe was great to. The WiFi signal was strong throughout the cafe. Great place to study.

Very thought provoking video in the temporary exhibition In The Air. It critically examines the sources of many pollutants and the use of chemicals to suppress dissent.

It's looking a bit sad without the buzz of the shop, but if you are looking for a quiet place to work you can't beat this place at the moment. Decent coffee.

Too little to see and do. Cafe is way overpriced!

I'm very fond of this café because it's big, airy and light, and on Mondays (when galleries are closed) it's even quiet! Delightful.

Lovely ground floor cafe of the art gallery. They have great croissants and very good speciality coffee made with Marzocco coffee machine.

Ideal spot to meet a friend and view the permanent collection and the temporary exhibition.
